Villains of the Bible: Sennacherib

The next villain on our list is the Assyrian king Sennacherib. There may be no greater trash-talker in the Bible than the Assyrian kings. Just 20 years after the northern Kingdom of Israel was conquered, Hezekiah faced an enormous army outside the walls of Jerusalem, led by one of the great conquerors of history. Hezekiah turns to God, and once again, God shows himself faithful against the backdrop of evil.
